Concentration Camps and False Stories of Massacres

Introduction

During the 1930s and throughout World War II Germany interned Jews, communists and other unreliable elements in labor camps called “concentration camps,” using the name for the camps in which the British had imprisoned the invaded Boer population. Germany did so in the 1930s to gain peace, as the communist party had ten million members and was on its way to take power through force. The communists had followed this pattern in the Soviet Union, briefly in Hungary, and they had temporarily taken power in Bavaria and elsewhere in Germany after World War I. During the war the Jews had agitated for strikes, notably the Munitions Strike that severely hurt the morale of German soldiers.

During World War II Jews were interned as it was a certainty that many of them would seek to sabotage Germany’s war effort. It was also a measure to save the people in Poland, Hungary and elsewhere from the Jewish populations that were considered to have caused much conflict through the centuries. After the war they would be relocated either to remote areas of Eastern Europe or to Palestine – some arrangements for this had been made with Zionist leaders, and some inmates in the concentration camps were given training in agriculture.

Then after the war came the story of mass executions in the camps. The stories varied greatly but eventually settled on poison gas as an execution method. This became known as the Holocaust™, greatly promoted by the mostly Jewish owners of Western media. In time it became forbidden to question this story.

The Holocaust has become a secular religion today, thanks to constant attention from Jewish-owned media, in particular those in Hollywood. As Jewish actress Natalie Portman put it, “I get like 20 Holocaust scripts a month.” As Jesus died for our sins, so did Jews die for our racism. As our guilt for Jesus' crucifixion can only be washed away by supporting Christian policies, so can our guilt for the Holocaust only be washed away by supporting mass immigration to Western countries – a policy heavily supported by Jews both Left and Right, as it ensures there will be no majority in any nation, only minorities, like the Jews themselves.

The Holocaust is used to make Whites think they are undeserving to live and that they have inherited guilt that they must atone for. While Blacks, Jews, Latinos, Arabs and others are encouraged to feel a connection to their own people, Whites feeling the same connection are labeled “racist” and therefore evil. The Holocaust underpins this strategy.

It has also become a billion-dollar industry, as noted by Jewish author Norman Finkelstein in The Holocaust Industry. Germans have been forced to pay tens of billions of dollars to Israel, a country that did not even exist at the time of the Holocaust; Switzerland, France, other countries and also businesses have been forced to pay Israel and various Holocaust-themed organizations, always with the threat of economic and diplomatic sanctions from the U.S. if they don't comply. As time goes by the number of “Holocaust survivors” has increased, as the term has come to include Jews living anywhere in Europe during World War II or the 1930s, even in countries like Britain – and their descendants. This ensures that more Jews get access to the Gentiles' money.

Meanwhile the killing of more than 60 million Russians, Ukrainians and others in the Soviet Union, under heavily Jewish leadership, is practically erased from history. So is the mass rape of German, French, Italian and East European women by the end of the war. Indeed, many other important events before and during World War II are belittled or erased, to the point where school children believe that “World War II was about Germany killing the Jews and trying to take over the world, so we had to stop them.”

It stands to reason that even should the Holocaust have happened just like the media present it, it should mean nothing for political policy today. Guilt cannot be inherited, and even so, it should not affect discussions of what is good for Western peoples in today’s world. But the belief in inherited guilt – for Whites only, not anyone else – remains immensely strong, as the media owners have an interest in keeping it that way.

It should be interesting to know, then, that the Holocaust story cannot possibly have occurred in the way it is presented. It should also be interesting to know that aside from discussed points of the story, many witnesses have been proven to have lied, and stories of concentration camps with gas chambers in Germany itself have now been proven to be false. The only story that remains is that of gas chambers in camps in Poland – conveniently located behind the Iron Curtain after World War II, away from the reach of Western journalists.

Below are some points that provide a different view of the Holocaust.

The false story of mass executions in all camps

When the British and U.S. armied invaded Germany they met Jews in the concentration camps that claimed there had been mass executions of Jews in the camps, with various methods. Eventually the stories settled on gas as the primary method. American officers looked for signs of gas chambers but found none – it was proven beyond any doubt that the stories were false. Written orders went out to retain any inmate making such claims for further questioning.

A Catholic priest in one of the camps, who had claimed to have witnessed the use of gas chambers, was forced to admit that he had lied. When asked why, he said he had heard rumors of such executions from other camps, and he wanted to boost their credibility by adding his own testimony. This is a common recurrence in prison camps during wartime.

Let this be said clearly: there is no controversy about the fact that no gas chambers existed in the concentration camps in Germany. Instead the media changed the story; the gas chambers were now said to exist only in the camps in Poland, notably the camp complex in the town of Oświęcim (the Polish town called Auschwitz in German). These were located in nations occupied by the Soviet Red Army, behind the Iron Curtain, and so could not be examined by the U.S. Army or Western journalists. The stories about mass executions came to a great degree from The Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee, a wartime propaganda organization founded on Stalin’s orders.

The Wedding in Auschwitz is a novel based on a true story. Rudi Friemel, an inmate at Auschwitz, was in 1944 given permission to marry his bride Marga, who was brought in to the camp for the ceremony from the outside, together with the couple's child. The camp orchestra played at the wedding, and the two were given a room for the night in Block 24, which was normally a brothel for the camp inmates. Other prisoners volunteered to make a wedding breakfast.

Historians and former inmates question the stories

French historian Germain Tillion, a specialist on the Second World War period, has warned that former camp inmates who lie, are…

… very much more numerous than people generally suppose, and a subject like that of the concentration camp world … offered them an exceptional field of action. We have known numerous mentally damaged persons, half-swindlers and half fools, who exploited an imaginary deportation. We have known others of them -- authentic deportees -- whose sick minds strove to even go beyond the monstrosities that they had seen or that people said happened to them.

Jewish historian Samuel Gringauz, who was himself interned in the ghetto of Kaunas during the war, criticized what he called the “hyperhistorical” nature of most Jewish “survivor testimony.” He wrote that…

Shmuel Krakowki, archives director of the Israeli government’s Holocaust center, Yad Vashem, confirmed in 1986 that more than 10,000 of the 20,000 “testimonies” of Jewish “survivors” on file there are “unreliable.”

Many survivors, wanting “to be part of history” may have let their imaginations run away with them, Krakowski said. “Many were never in the places where they claimed to have witnessed atrocities, while others relied on second-hand information given them by friends or passing strangers.” He confirmed that many of the testimonies on file at Yad Vashem were later proved to be inaccurate when locations and dates could not pass an expert historian’s appraisal.

Various execution methods proven false

There were four widely spread stories of methods for the mass-execution of Jews:

1. Incineration. Jews were said to have been thrown in ditches with burning fuel.

2. Electricity. Jews were said to have been put on long moving “assembly lines” which electrocuted them to death, even to ashes, before dumping them straight into burning ovens.

3. Drowning. It was said that Jews were put in chambers filling with water. When they had drowned, the water was pumped out and the floor tipped the bodies into burning ovens.

4. Poison gas. It was said that Jews were put in chambers filling with poison gas. When they had died, the gas was pumped out and the bodies were carried to burning ovens.

In the 1950s only the last version had survived. Mention of the other three were erased from new editions of books written by professional Holocaust survivors like Simon Wiesenthal.

Soap and lampshades

Simon Wiesenthal, who made a career out of being a “Holocaust survivor,” promoted the story of soap being made by the fat from dead Jews. He said that the letters RIF on some bars of soap meant Pure Jewish Fat in German. This is however spelled Rein Judisches Fett, which would be RJF, not RIF.

The story has been proven false. The letters RIF actually stand for National Center for Industrial Fat Provisioning, in German, Reichstelle fur industrielle Fettvergsorgun.

Likewise, stories of Jewish skin being made into lampshades were of course false. Yet these stories were promoted by the media after the war to promote hatred of Germans.

Mass graves

Prisoners in the concentration camps told Allied soldiers that hundreds of thousands of executed inmates were buried in mass graves, just outside the camps. Large areas were dug up, but no mass graves were ever found. Echo sounders were used to examine the ground, but nothing was found. The stories were conclusively proven false. In fact, not a single gassed body has ever been found. The story was instead changed to that all bodies had been cremated.

The ”four million in Auschwitz” reduced

It was said four million Jews were killed in the Auschwitz camp, which together with other camps would amount to six million dead. The four-million figure was engraved on a plaque outside the entrance to the Auschwitz camp, which has been preserved for its propaganda value. However, during the 1990s the plaque has been quietly changed to one saying only 1.5 million were killed. The Polish government made the reduction after studying Red Army archives that showed they had made up the figure four million. (Yes, the figure actually comes from the Soviet army, and was presented by Western media as truth. It was the Soviet Jew Ilya Ehrenburg who first came up with the Six Million figure.)

Still, no public reduction of the “Six Million Dead” figure has been made. One would think Jews would be happy to hear that 2.5 million fewer than they thought had died. But the opposite is the case: Jews become enraged when you talk of the good news that not so many died. Anyone making that claim is a “Holocaust denier” and a “Nazi.” The Six Million figure remains sacred.

In fact, it is a crime in Germany, Austria France and some other nations to question the Six Million figure. Historians have been jailed for doing so, making them de facto political prisoners.

Old plaque outside Auschwitz, claiming four million were executed

New plaque outside Auschwitz, claiming 1.5 people were executed. This has been completely ignored by the media, and the Six Million figure remains as immutable as ever.

Polish report says no gas in Auschwitz

An investigation by the Krakow Forensic Institute has shown that “gas chambers” in the camps in Auschwitz, Birkenau and Majdanek were never used to gas people.

They detected no traces of cyanide in most of the samples from plaster and brick in the supposed gas chambers. Traces of cyanide were detected in eight samples, seven of which came from a room where the inmates' clothing was exposed to gas to kill lice and bacteria. (This was the real use of the Zyklon B gas in the camps, as shown in camp archives. Not to kill people.)

This is the same finding as the one made by Fred Leuchter in 1988, an expert on gas chambers who built gas chambers for executions in American prisons. He went into Poland, brought home samples from the walls in the “gas chambers” and examined them. He found no traces of gas. For this he was denounced in the media as a “Nazi sympathizer” and he was never hired again by any U.S. prison.

As James Roth, chief chemist of Alpha Analytical Labs in Massachusetts, and others have stated, traces from cyanide do not disappear from the walls after they have reacted with iron and other heavy metal ions. This is also shown by the traces in the walls in the delousing chambers.

Zyklon B also colors walls in a strong blue color, that is embedded deep in the walls. This remains on the walls in the delousing chambers, but not in the supposed gas chambers.

Fred Leuchter in 1988 also noted that the chambers were not properly sealed off. Builders of gas chambers have to be extra careful, as gas can easily slip out and kill the guards outside. Gas chambers in American prisons are extremely airtight. The rooms supposed to be gas chambers in the concentration camps are not sealed off.

Six million figure used from 1900 and onward

The figure Six Million Jews – either dead or suffering – has been brought up at various times. According to some it holds a religious meaning in Jewish prophecy related to the coming of the Messiah. The New York Times archive shows several examples of this.

In a New York Times 1900 column, Zionist Rabbi Wise said, “There are 6,000,000 living, bleeding, suffering arguments in favor of Zionism.”

The New York Times archive shows that in 1905, a Jewish Dr. Harris “declared that a free and happy Russia, with its 6,000,000 Jews, would possibly mean the end of Zionism.”

The Jewish Dr. Paul Nathan said at a fundraiser in Berlin, March 12 1906, that 6,000,000 Jews were suffering in Russia. The Russian government had a “solution for the Jewish Question,” which meant systematic extermination of these Jews.

In 1918 the Jews were apparently still six million in the Soviet Union, and they needed a billion dollars from Americans to resume normal life at the end of World War I, according to the Committee of American Jews.

In 1919 Ukrainian Jews travelled to the West to solicit aid for Ukrainian and Polish Jews, who were said to be six million, and who were threatened by pogroms. President Wilson said, “This fact that the population of 6,000,000 souls in Ukrania and in Poland have received notice through action and by word that they are going to be completely exterminated – this fact stands before the whole world as the paramount issue of the present day.”

The wealthy Jew Nathan Straus asked for aid for East European Jews, saying that six million of them stood in bread lines. Americans needed to give more money to the Joint Distribution Committee of American Funds for Jewish War Sufferers.

In a rare admittance that Jews were deeply involved in communism, a 1921 New York Times article asked for help for Jews when it seemed the anti-communist White Army could defeat the Red Army: “Begs America Save 6,000,000 in Russia ... Massacre threatens all Jews as Soviet power wanes, declares Kreinin, coming here for aid… Russia’s 6,000,000 Jews are facing mass extermination by massacre.”

In 1945, the New York Times reported that six million inmates of concentration camps had been liberated. Yet later, they would instead say that six million had died.

Pictures of starving/dead prisonersFor their psychological value, photographs are often shown of inmates in the camps with a starving look. This is supposed to be proof that the Germans did not care for their survival. (Even though, for example, German doctors in the camps saved Simon Wiesenthal from an attempted suicide by cutting open his wrists, and German doctors and nurses sought to save Anne Frank from typhus.)

But all of Germany suffered from a lack of food. Transports to the camps was especially difficult since the Allies bombed the railroad tracks. Despite this the inmates in Auschwitz received more calories to eat per day than German soldiers on the Eastern front.

The sunken chests shown on inmates in the pictures are also a common indication of tuberculosis, which was a common problem in the camps. East European Jews brought with them many diseases to the camps. Sometimes this caused epidemics which the Germans sought to stop, and at least one commander was executed for failing to stop Jews from dying.

Then there is the picture of bodies piled on top of each other, which is often added in connection to stories about the Holocaust. This is an especially nasty example of lying by omission. The presenter then omits to explain that the picture is actually of Germans burned to death in Dresden. There are no, and never have been, any pictures of Jews killed by poison gas, as no such bodies have ever been found.

Picture of dead prisoners in the Bergen-Belsen camp in northern Germany. This photograph and others have been used to prove gassings of Jews. However, historians agree that no gas chambers ever existed in Bergen-Belsen. They all show the unmistakable signs of having died of typhus, with the characteristic thinness being caused by the dehydration which accompanies that sickness.

Winston Churchill’s and Charles de Gaulle’s memoirs

Neither Prime Minister Churchill nor French General de Gaulle included stories of gas chambers in their war memoirs. Winston Churchill’s books on World War II are usually considered the most exhaustive account of the war ever compiled.

No mention of extermination in any German document

After the war, the Allies captured an enormous amount of documents from Germany. From the German Foreign Office alone, U.S. officials took documents amounting to 485 tons of paper.

It is estimated that one million pages of documents on Reich policy for Jews were taken. Of all these tons of paper, a few thousand documents were chosen for use in the Nuremberg Trials and some hundreds were published, considered the most damning. Yet in none of these is there any mention of exterminating Jews.

“Holocaust historians” explain this in two ways. One, that the Germans apparently planned ahead for a defeat, so they never wrote anything down about this program, even while writing down everything else. Two, that the extermination was “organic,” that it was “understood” in the SS bureaucracy that this was what the leaders wanted, even though it was never stated. Holocaust historians then argue over which of these is the most believable.

Inmates released

Throughout the 1930s, and throughout the war, inmates were released from the concentration camps when they had served their time. Even in 1942, 1943 and 1944, when the extermination of Jews was said to go on, were inmates released from Auschwitz. These did not mention any gas chambers when they made contact with the Polish resistance, who passed on their stories to the Polish exile government. Is it likely that inmates would be released if a secret extermination program was in full swing? No – which is why we never hear of this.

A prisoner's release note from the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp, dated June 8, 1944. It was found in the Moscow State Archives. It is not questioned that prisoners were frequently released, but it is never mentioned by the media, as it would contradict the story of millions of inmates gassed in secret.

No mention of gassings by Auschwitz inmates during the war

In Auschwitz, where four million Jews were said to have been gassed to death from 1942 to 1944, there was a large Polish resistance movement among the inmates, split between communists and Nationalists. These were in contact with the resistance movement outside the camp, and thereby with the Polish exile government in London, throughout the war. The camp was so large that there were plenty of opportunities for reaching the outside world. Examples were:

-The resistance had a radio in the camp, and sent messages to the resistance movement outside.

-They sent messages, even entire documents, with inmates who were released from the camp.

-Some officers and others escaped from the camp to deliver important messages. They were planning a camp uprising and wanted the resistance movement outside to be aware of how their plans were proceeding.

-Hundreds of civilian Germans and Poles came to the camp in the morning to do work, then went home again in the evening. Many of these were sympathetic to the resistance and delivered messages for them.

The messages were then sent to the Polish government in London, often through Sweden. The Polish government made frequent publications of stories of executions in the camp, of bad food, bad work conditions, and bad treatment.

Yet despite these stories of bad treatment and executions, despite constant contact, no mention of the systematic gassing of millions was ever made.

Only once did the Polish government publish a story about gas being used, when a thousand prisoners were supposedly killed on the same day. These would be 700 Bolshevik war prisoners and 300 Poles. They were apparently packed into a small shelter, which was then filled with gas, so that they died during the night. It took the entire next day to remove all the bodies, the report said.

Jewish “Holocaust historians” have tried to explain away this absence of gas stories by saying the Polish government was dishonest. It was lying by omission. It didn’t want anyone to know of the gassing of Jews, because then they would be less sympathetic to the Poles being killed. This is an amazing rationalization – why would the Polish government not use a story of the killing of millions, which would surely affect audiences worldwide? They even mention the use of gas against newly captured Bolshevik prisoners once, showing they were not reluctant to do so. At other times they do mention executions of individual Jews.

False documents

At the Nuremberg Trial, two of the most important documents presented Hitler’s supposed plans for world conquest, outlined in private conversations. One of this was the basis for the book Hitler Speaks. The first document is USSR-378, and the second, the “Hossbach Protocol,” is called 386-PS. The latter one is what mostly condemned Hermann Goering to death. Both have since been exposed as frauds.

Another dubious document is called L-3, which is supposedly a speech made by Adolf Hitler to German soldiers. This is where the often-repated line comes, where he says that no one will remember the killing of Jews, because “Who talks nowadays of the extermination of the Armenians?”

Indeed, even Jewish historian Lucy Dawidowicz, author of The War Against the Jews, has acknowledged that many of the documents were fake, and others “purvey myth rather than historical fact.”

The Eichmann trial

When SS Commander Adolf Eichmann had been kidnapped and brought to Israel for trial, Jewish historian Hannah Arendt noted that many of the witnesses in the trial could not distinguish between their own experiences and those they had read or heard about later. This is common behavior among witnesses everywhere, which is why juries in U.S. trials are not permitted to watch TV or read newspapers.

Jewish historian Lucy Dawidowicz likewise noted that “the survivor's memory is often distorted by hate, sentimentality, and the passage of time.”

The Nuremberg Trials

When German prisoners were put on trial in Nuremberg after the war, the indictments were four points:

-Participation in a common plan or conspiracy for the accomplishment of a crime against peace

- Planning, initiating and waging wars of aggression and other crimes against peace

-War crimes

-Crimes against humanity

The last point included gassings of Jews. This point was not planned, it was only added right before the trials began, after pressure from Jewish groups. The stories about gassed Jews were not widely spread at this time. (As for the other points, Britain, France, Russia and the U.S. were of course equally guilty of them, such as in the 1939 UK-USSR invasion of Iran.)

At Nuremberg, the defenders were not allowed to choose between German documents themselves. All documentation used was picked by the prosecutors. Historian Werner Maser has noted, “thousands of documents which seemed likely possibly to incriminate the Allies and exonerate the defendants suddenly disappeared.”

It was at this trial that the figure of four million Jews killed at Auschwitz was presented. It came from the Soviet Red Army’s reports on Auschwitz and Majdanek (USSR-8 and USSR-9) which said that four million were killed in the first camp and 1.5 million in the latter. Today no historian believes these figures. The Polish government has reduced the number for Auschwitz to 1.5 million. Yet this is how the Six Million figure was built up.

Nahum Goldmann, one-time president of both the World Jewish Congress and the World Zionist Organization, reported in his memoir that the Nuremberg Tribunal was the invention of World Jewish Congress officials. Only after persistent effort were WJC officials able to persuade Allied leaders to accept the idea, he added.

Not surprisingly it was the Jewish officer Lt. Col. Murray Bernays in the U.S. Army who persuaded U.S. War Secretary Henry Stimson to put imprisoned German leaders on trial. Another Jew, Colonel David Marcus, picked almost all the judges, prosecutors and lawyers for the Nuremberg NMT Trials. He later became a commander of Zionist “Haganah” military forces in Palestine.

American Objections to the Nuremberg Trials

Some of those who took part in the Nuremberg trials turned against the process, such as Charles F. Wennerstrum, an Iowa Supreme Court judge. He served as the presiding judge in the Nuremberg Trials. He said later: “If I had known seven months ago what I know today, I would never have come here. The high ideals announced as the motives for creating these tribunals have not been evident.”

Wennerstrum made a careful remark to the Jewishness of the trial: “The entire atmosphere here is unwholesome ... Lawyers, clerks, interpreters and researchers were employed who became Americans only in recent years, whose backgrounds were imbedded in Europe's hatreds and prejudices.”

American defense attorney Major Leon B. Poullada protested against the outright lying going on during the trial by former camp inmates against former camp officials in the Nordhausen-Dora case.

US Supreme Court Chief Justice Harlan Fiske Stone remarked: “Chief US prosecutor] Jackson is away conducting his high-grade lynching party in Nuremberg. I don't mind what he does to the Nazis, but I hate to see the pretense that he is running a court and proceeding according to common law.”

Congressman Lawrence Smith from Wisconsin said: “The Nuremberg trials are so repugnant to the Anglo-Saxon principles of justice that we must forever be ashamed of that page in our history.”

Congressman John Rankin from Mississippi said of the Jew-run trials: “As a representative of the American people I desire to say that what is taking place in Nuremberg, Germany, is a disgrace to the United States... A racial minority, two and a half years after the war closed, are in Nuremberg not only hanging German soldiers but trying German businessmen in the name of the United States.”

Senator Robert Taft, widely known as the “conscience of the Republican Party,” said in 1946: “In these trials we have accepted the Russian idea of the purpose of trials – government policy and not justice – with little relation to Anglo-Saxon heritage.”

Milton Konvitz, a Jewish specialist of law at New York University, said that the Nuremberg Trial “constitutes a real threat to the basic conceptions of justice which it has taken mankind thousands of years to establish.”

U.S Supreme Court Justice William Douglas later wrote: “I thought at the time and still think that the Nuremberg trials were unprincipled. Law was created ex post facto to suit the passion and clamor of the time.”

US Rear Admiral H. Lamont Pugh, former Navy Surgeon General, wrote: “I thought the trials in general bordered upon international lunacy.”

The lying went on even in later years. In 1978, judge Norman Roettger ruled in a Florida case that all six Jewish witnesses who had testified to seeing shootings and atrocities carried out by Ukrainian-born Feodor Fedorenko had wrongly identified him after being misled by Israeli authorities.

The Jew Charles Kremer visited Israel in 1981 looking for Jews who could confirm atrocities allegedly carried out by a former Ukrainian SS man living in New Jersey. He went back home earlier than expected, bitterly complaining of stomach pains that he said came from dealing with “hucksters” who tried to use his search for their personal gain.

Example of Clear Lie at Nuremberg

A tragi-comic incident during the Dachau proceedings shows the quality of the Nuremberg Trials. A U.S. investigator, the Jew Joseph Kirschbaum, brought a Jewish witness named Einstein into court to testify that the defendant, Menzel, had murdered Einstein’s brother.

But when the accused pointed out that the brother was actually sitting in the courtroom, an embarrassed Kirschbaum scolded the witness: “How can we bring this pig to the gallows if you are so stupid as to bring your brother into court?”

August Gross Explains the Nuremberg Trials

August Gross was a German employee for the U.S. Army at the Dachau trials. He later said:

“The American prosecutors paid professional incrimination witnesses, mostly former criminal concentration camp inmates, the amount of one dollar per day (at that time worth 280 marks on the black market) as well as food from a witness kitchen and witness lodging. During the recess periods between trial proceedings the U.S. prosecuting attorneys told these witnesses what they were to say in giving testimony. The U.S. prosecuting attorneys gave the witnesses photos of the defendants and were thereby able to easily incriminate them.”

Prisoners Voluntarily Following German Soldiers

When the Red Army invaded Poland and Czechoslovakia, the prisoners in the concentration camps were released. They had the choice of staying and wait for the Red Army, or follow the Germans back to Germany, where they would be safer from the communists. Many thousands followed the Germans – among them Simon Wiesenthal, professional Holocaust survivor. Why would they follow the German soldiers who had supposedly been killing them in the millions?

Mathematics Behind the Executions

Let us do the math. Supposedly, the mass executions of six million Jews would have begun some time in 1942 and gone on until 1944. This is approximately 2.5 years, 912 days. Assuming that camp guards were working every day of the year, six hours a day, that would amount to 5,472 hours.

6,000,000 dead divided by 5,472 hours = 1,097 killed every hour. In just a few gas chambers.

It would of course be impossible to work with executions every day all year round, and especially not toward the end of the war. It would also be impossible to gas prisoners six hours a day. Such a gas chamber would have to be aired for at least half a day before anyone could go inside and carry out bodies. Even with a gas mask, cyanide enters the body through the skin and could be fatal.

In the one mention of gassings of prisoners made by the Polish exile government, after one of the many messages from inmates in Auschwitz, it was said that it took an entire day to carry 1,000 war prisoners out of the shelter where gas had been pumped in during the night.

The bodies would also have to be cremated. Furthermore, “witnesses” at the Nuremberg Trial said that they had to dig out gold teeth from the mouths of the bodies. They also had to search body cavities to see if the dead had hidden valuables. To do all this with 1,097 bodies an hour and cremate them to ashes would be an enormous task.

Not only that: it is said sometimes that millions of non-Jews were also gassed. It seems the inmates, guards, and civilian workers from outside Auschwitz must have done nothing else than gas and cremate inmates all day long for nearly three years.

Further Lies by Simon Wiesenthal

The Holocaust story rests on a few “star witnesses,” foremost among them Simon Wiesenthal, who has made a great deal of money from publishing books and going on tours talking about his time in concentration camps. For example, the Los Angeles Wiesenthal Center pays him $75,000 a year for the use of his name, which has high commercial value.

Yet Simon Wiesenthal has been caught with many stories that even other camp inmates have contradicted, one being the story about soap made from Jewish bodies. Some other stories:

-Wiesenthal said in an article from 1946 that Jews were mass executed in electrocution showers. Five hundred at a time. Of course, this is false and never mentioned by any Holocaust historians today.

-Wiesenthal has said he was one of only 34 survivors from the concentration camp in Mauthausen; Encyclopaedia Judaica put the number of survivors at 212,000.

-Wiesenthal has claimed “six million dead Jews and five million dead Gentiles” in the Holocaust. According to Yad Vashem, the “five million” was false, and only Wiesenthal’s own invention. Wiesenthal has admitted that he lied.

-He has said he fled from a camp in Lvov, where he had his own hut and was even allowed to own two guns, and joined the Polish partisans, organizing raids on the Germans. Yet in other statements he has simply said he was hiding with various families, with no mention of any partisan activity.

-He has said that he was a Soviet chief engineer in Lvov and Odessa 1939-1941. He has then contradicted himself by saying he was a Soviet architect in Odessa. In a third statement, he has said he was a mechanic in a factory that produced bedsprings.

-In 1946 Wiesenthal sought to make money from a collection of sketches supposed to represent the horrors of the Mauthausen concentration camp. One drawing shows three inmates bound to posts and brutally beaten to death. This picture is false; it was copied with only small changes from a photograph in Life magazine in 1945, which shows three German soldiers bound and executed in 1944 after having been caught as spies behind enemy lines during the “Battle of the Bulge.”

-Wiesenthal has also told extensively of the “deathbed confession” of the Mauthausen Commandant, Franz Ziereis, according to which four million people were gassed in the nearby Hartheim camp. This is absurd, and no Holocaust historian believes this story.

-Also according to the Ziereis “confession,” the Germans supposedly killed ten million people in Poland, Lithuania and Latvia. In fact, this “confession” was obtained by torture.

-In 1974 Wiesenthal targeted Frank Walus, a Polish man now living in Chicago, saying he had “delivered Jews to the Gestapo” during the war. Frank Walus was demonized in the media, and he was attacked and beaten in the streets. He fought a long, legal battle to prove his innocence. Eleven Jews sat in the courtroom testifying that they had seen him murdering women and children. Yet after all this – as newspapers also confirmed – he could prove that he had been a peaceful farm laborer in Germany during the war. But by then he had put himself $60,000 in debt. He died in 1994, a bitter and broken man. But Simon Wiesenthal was never held accountable for his false accusation.

-Still, Wiesenthal is not always wrong. In 1975 and again in 1993 he publicly acknowledged that “there were no extermination camps on German soil.” This of contradicts his earlier statement from the Nuremberg Trial when he said that Buchenwald, Dachau and other camps in Germany were “extermination camps” like Auschwitz.

-Simon Wiesenthal has also made a lot of money from telling stories about how he captured SS Commander Adolf Eichmann. Eichmann was kidnapped by Israeli agents in Argentina, without bothering to go through legal Argentinian channels. He was brought to Israel, where he was executed. However, the leader of the Israeli team, Isser Harel, has said that Wiesenthal had “absolutely nothing” to do with the capture, and in fact endangered the operation by giving the team false information.

-Wiesenthal has made numerous statements about how he has almost caught Joseph Mengele, a German physician in Auschwitz. He has “almost” caught Mengele in Greece and in South America several times. Israel’s ambassador to Paraguay said in 1983 that this was simply part of Wiesenthal’s campaign to raise money for himself.

Austrian Chancellor Bruno Kreisky, leader of the Social Democrats in Austria, accused Simon Wiesenthal of actually having worked for the Gestapo. Bruno Kreisky himself was a Jew who had spent time in concentration camps. In response to his accusation Simon Wiesenthal sought to bring a lawsuit against Bruno Kreisky, but eventually both of them backed down.

In fact, many high-ranking Israelis have denounced Wiesenthal as a charlatan. Yet he remains one of the star witnesses for the Holocaust.
